Selichoth shel 21 Kislev [penitential prayers for the 21st of Kislev]

According to the title-page, this Selichoth was property of the Chevra Kadisha (burial society) of the community of Schottland and was executed by the gaba'im (officers) Gershon and Yaakov Bari. In many European communities the date of 21st of Kislev was observed with a banquet in honor of the members of the burial society. In other communities, the Chevra Kadisha were honored on the 7th of Adar, the yahrzeit of Moses. (See J.D. Eisenstein, Otzar Dinim u-Minhagim, s.v. Chevrah Kadisha). Schottland is a German town in West Prussia adjacent to Danzig (today, Polish Gdansk).
